The West Indies
I don't really like cricket.
But I'm a fan of my Granda
and when he used to look after
my sister and I at Christmas
we would watch cricket together.
The howling wet wintry winds
of North East England gave way
to the steel drums and scorched earth
of the azure skied Caribbean.
Mad midday sun Englishmen
hopelessly hit for sixes
and fours by a West Indies
sniper like batting barrage.
I like cricket it makes me feel warm.
I don't really like cricket.
But I'm a fan of my Granda
and when he used to look after
my sister and I at Christmas
we would watch cricket together.
The howling wet wintry winds
of North East England gave way
to the steel drums and scorched earth
of the azure skied Caribbean.
Mad midday sun Englishmen
hopelessly hit for sixes
and fours by a West Indies
sniper like batting barrage.
I like cricket it makes me feel warm.
wae aye man ye radgie
